Aerosmith Live Performance of Sight for Sore Eyes with Bottle Incident 1978
Before the chaotic live performance of "Sight for Sore Eyes" at the Cow Palace in Daly City, Aerosmith was riding a wave of success with their 1976 album, "Rocks." This release solidified their hard rock reputation and included hits like "Back in the Saddle" and "Last Child." The November 30, 1977 concert was a high-energy show that highlighted the band's escalating popularity and intense stage presence. However, this particular performance is also infamous for the glass bottle incident, where a fan's reckless throw injured lead singer Steven Tyler, adding a wild twist to the evening's events. At this point in their career, Aerosmith was navigating both the heights of fame and the turbulence that often accompanies rock stardom, capturing the raw edge of their live shows that fans loved.
